[QUOTE="Brian Kinney, post: 215962, member: 3219"] I liked it. Much more than Ryan Murphy's first show for Netflix ([I]The Politican[/I]). And also more than [I]Feud [/I]and [I]Pose[/I] which are his most positively received TV series by critics. The critics don't like [I]Hollywood[/I]. Don't believe 'em. The idea to change the life of historical characters and give them a probably better life (as in the case of Rock Hudson) caught my attention. The 'what if' is a Tarantino idea for the small-screen but the cast and diverse characters entertained me. There were some heartbreaking moments [I]Hollywood[/I] is a fantasy that gives hopes to those who don't have that freedom or are on the verge to lose it because of extremists. Every society needs heroes like Archie Coleman, Avis Amberg, Raymond Ainsley, Camille Washington or Dick Samuels and their supporters as Ernie West (played by scene stealer Dylan McDermott). It's also a nice look back to the "golden days" of Hollywood that were never that shiny for most of the people who live/d there. Sexual abuse is seen here through they eyes of a gay and a straight victim - both dealing with the same gay offender. Trivia: It seems to be the first Ryan Murphy show without flashbacks. [/QUOTE]
